Logos Hope

 

 
Aww, this is a long due post.
 
I wasn’t able to go when this “famous ship” with the books was here some time ago.
 
I am not quite sure if it’s the same ship or what.
 
At last, my friends and I made our way to Doha Port at around 4 PM.
 
The line is already quite long but bearable.
 
We got the tickets for Qr 2 each and has to present our Qatar IDs for verification.
 
Our bags were also scanned for security purposes.
 
We waited for a few minutes for the buses to come as we are not allowed to go inside the port on
 
private vehicles.
 
The bus ride is cool, it’s my first time to actually ride one here in Doha!
 
There is a police convoy while we headed to the port.
 
The ship is enormous!
 
Can you believe that all the staff/crew of the ship are volunteers for at least 1 or 2 years?
 
They are quite warm and friendly too!
 
When we arrived, we were asked to watch a short presentation about the ship, the organization, the
 
crews, etc.
 
They do have vast collections of books at very affordable prices.
 
I was able the buy some new ones and got a free eco bag with it.
 
They also have a space for kids who would want to play for a while.
 
There’s also a cafeteria serving some snacks.
 
Want to see what I got?
 
Here they are:

Cat Lover

Books for a cause. Definitely!
I won’t mind visiting the ship again!
 
It’s truly a great way to encourage people to read!
 
For sure, they will be back.

One Fine Day at the MIA Park

It is a Friday and we were off to watch the first ever Red Bull Flug Tag in Qatar.
 
The crowd turn out is great.
 
Good thing we left our car in our friend's home and walked all the way to the park as the parking
 
space inside it was closed.
The weather is quite hot still and we caught the first few entries the decided to grab something to eat.
 
We went to the coffee shop instead and had started to relax a bit and enjoy the breeze and the view.
 
A pair of sunnies is a must!

My view...

These are cozy.

Waffles...

Beat the summer heat!
Oh, then my mind wandered and dreamed that I hope I could stay a little bit longer there!

Shake Shack Attack

Shake Shack
Hello!
 
Have you already tried the food at Shake Shack?
 
I had tried it only last Monday even if they had opened a loonggg way back!
 
My friends and I came in and we had chosen the one near the counter.
 
We were having a hard time choosing which ones to order and had finally decided and called one of the staff.
 
Apparently, we have to line up to the counter and will be given this cutesy little thing that will light up once our orders are ready.
 
Silly us! Thanks to the very helpful staff!
 
I enjoyed my food and loved the fries!
 
Yes, I am a fries person.
 

Waiting for it to shake lol

Another reason to love it: nature lovers and eco-friendly.

A glimpse on what they offer

I finished this up!

It's half lemon and half-tea.
Will definitely go back there again next time.
 
Shake Shack is located in Villaggio Mall.

Wagamama

Hey!
 
Have you been to the Lagoona Mall lately?
 
I was able to drop by with my friends to grab a quick and late dinner at Wagamama.
 
It's actually the first time that I visited that part of Lagoona Mall (yeah, I've not gone out to the malls for quite some time now!).
 
Their place has that Asian feel!
 
They do have a wide variety of dishes and at reasonable prices too!
 
Their food is great and the servings are quite big.
 
I enjoyed the food even if I was not able to finish it up!
 
Dine at Wagamama, Lagoona Mall.
 
Be ready to chow with chopsticks!
Spice it up!
 
Miso Soup
This is actually good for 2 persons for sharing.
They have deliveries too!
